Foggy Ancient History

Before getting on the clipper ship, we toured other areas of the beautiful country of Greece. A place that I will always remember was Olympia where the ancients held the first Olympics and where the ornate Temple of Zeus was heralded as one of the ancient wonders of the world.

 

Of course the Temple is now longer there, but on the foggy morning of my visit about six years ago, I quickly sensed the importance of this site to the ancient Greeks.
